Hyundai Repair: Brake Rotors, hyundai accent, brake rotors
QuestionHow do you get the front rotor off of a 2002 hyundai accent after you stripped the threads from the holes you use to put a bolt in to pop them off? Thank You.
AnswerThe holes work very poorly. Most of the time, using the holes only results in damaging the rotor.
I usually remove the rotor with about a 3.5 pound plastic hammer. A heavy brass hammer works well, too. If you're replacing the rotors, you can use a stardard 3 to 4 pound hammer, but be careful to not strike the knuckle since this is heavy enough to bend things.
